“If Alphonso Davies Comes, I’m Leaving”: The Player Is Firm, and It’s Not Mendy
Real Madrid now knows the opinion of a player who could join the Santiago Bernabéu dressing room in the coming years: it all depends on what happens with Alphonso Davies.
The latest Real Madrid-related news revolves around Alphonso Davies. The Canadian number ’19’ from Bayern Munich has resisted renewing with the Bavarian club and has held many conversations in recent months with Juni Calafat.
The head of the White scouts has managed to convince the North American defender that the next step in his career is Real Madrid.
According to the latest reports from various media outlets, Davies’ signing seems to be in its final stages.
The terms of the agreement between the White negotiators and the player’s representatives do not appear to be a problem, as the most challenging part will be reaching a transfer agreement with Bayern Munich: the German board is already demanding a minimum of 50 million euros.
However, Alphonso Davies’ signing would limit opportunities for another player in the same position at Real Madrid: “If Alphonso Davies comes, I’m leaving,” stated Miguel Gutiérrez. The current ‘3’ for Girona is surrounded by rumors of a return to the Santiago Bernabéu, a destination that the Canadian ’19’ would avoid.
Alternatives and Decisions Thus, Miguel Gutiérrez would be transferred to another team… with Real Madrid receiving the corresponding percentage of the agreed transfer fee. Unless the executives led by Florentino Pérez take preemptive action and execute a maneuver costing eight million euros. In return, they would have an overbooking in the left-back position, adding Ferland Mendy and Fran García.
The French number ’23’ has recovered from his physical discomfort and has strengthened his position as Carlo Ancelotti’s ‘favorite’ in the event of a hypothetical sale, making Fran García the ‘weakest’ link. The former Rayo Vallecano defender returned to the white stadium to alleviate a bad situation that forced Eduardo Camavinga to play as a left-back last season… a situation that is not currently happening and could lead to an unwanted accumulation of players at the Valdebebas offices.
